"I have never seen a book like this and think it will make an important contribution to the field. I really like that it covers environmental, social, and geospatial data. I also really like the coverage of ethics. These aspects of health analytics are often overlooked or deemphasized. I will definitely buy copies for my team."

- Jason Moore, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center

"Overall, I have a highly positive impression of the book. It is VERY comprehensive. It covers very extensive data types. I do not recall other books with the same level of comprehensiveness."

- Shuangge Ma, Yale University

"The book is comprehensive in both aspects of genetics, and health analytics. It covers any type of information a healthcare data scientist should be familiar with, whether they are novice or experienced. I found any chapter that I looked into comprehensive, but also not too detailed (although in general this book is more than 600 pages of comprehensive and detailed relevant information)."

- Robert Moskovtich, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev
